"Let's go, old Lin?"
Shen Yifan called out, confused.
Lin Yi took a moment to come back to his senses and quickly activated his spirit sense to the maximum range, trying to lock onto the blurry figure that just flashed by. However, no matter how he searched, he couldn't find anyone in the crowd.
"Could I really be seeing things?"
Lin Yi rubbed his eyes subconsciously and checked again, still not finding anything.
Shen Yifan and Yan Zhongyuan looked at him strangely.""What's wrong?"
"It's nothing. Let's go,"
Lin Yi had to suppress his suspicions and follow the two, but he was still suspicious. At his level, it was almost impossible for him to make an illusion, but it was really the person he thought it was. It was too much of a coincidence.
How could there be such a coincidence in the world?
The four of them strolled through the night market. Sun Buyi took the lead, and without waiting for Lin Yi and the other two to catch up, he had already finished one restaurant and moved on to the next, showing his true nature as a top-tier foodie.
Of course, it was a rare opportunity to visit the food paradise on the street, and Lin Yi and the others wouldn't just look at it without eating. Besides, Lin Yi wasn't going to bring food for himself-he had to bring food for Tang Yun and Wang shiqing.
The few of them went with the flow of the crowd, and an hour passed in the blink of an eye.
"It's almost time for us to go back. I'm afraid we won't be able to make it in time for the dormitory to close,"Shen Yifan reminded her.
"Alright, call him Old Sun and let him clean up the rest next time."
The three of them were preparing to return when a large group of people suddenly gathered in front of them. They were mainly onlookers.
After using their divine senses to check, the three of them changed their expressions.
At this moment, in the center of the crowd, sun Buyi was sitting on the ground in a sorry state. In his hands, he was still holding a thick stack of various snacks and delicacies that he had just bought. His own face was covered in dust and dirt, but the snacks in his arms were intact.
Four burly men surrounded him in the middle. The leader was a spirited young man with a head full of dirty braids. He kicked sun Buyi's face while cursing.
"They're f * cking trying to eat the king's meal on us! If you don't pay for the ten catties of clear spirit cakes today, don't even think of leaving!"
Sun Buyi used his face to receive the kick, but the snacks in his arms were still safe and sound. He argued,""That's not right. I clearly only ate five catties just now. It definitely wasn't ten catties!"
A passerby beside him kindly reminded him."Little brother, you should just admit it. These people are not to be trifled with. Just take it as breaking them down to avoid disaster."
However, sun Buyi was serious."How much you ate is how much you ate. We can't be vague about this."
Even the young man with dreadlocks was amused, let alone the passers-by."Not bad, you're quite the character! Fine, how do you prove that you only ate five catties and not ten catties? why don't we cut out your stomach for everyone to see?"
Sun Buyi looked around and pointed at the camera in the corner,""You can see it from the surveillance camera. You'll know once you check it."
"Check my a * s, that surveillance camera is broken. I think you're being sincere, aren't you?"
The young man with dreadlocks raised his hand and gave sun Buyi another slap.
However, the snacks in sun Buyi's arms were still intact. He had to admit that the world in the eyes of a foodie was indeed different from that of a normal person.
The little guy with dreadlocks stepped on sun Buyi and said arrogantly,""Kid, I'll give you one last chance. Either you pay for the ten pounds of clear spirit cakes, or I'll beat you half to death here today and send you to the urban management Bureau!"
"Hold on!"
At this time, a gender-neutral voice suddenly interrupted, and an outrageously handsome young man came into everyone's view,""He did just eat five plates of clear spirit cakes. Five plates means five pounds. I saw it clearly when I was sitting opposite him."
"Little Lord, didn't your family warn you before you came out that you'll be in trouble if you meddle in other people's business?"
The young man with dreadlocks glared at the man with an unfriendly expression.
While he signaled his men to block it, he continued to step on sun Buyi. He secretly sent out a vicious force from his feet, aiming at his defenseless internal organs. He was ready to make sun Buyi suffer.
However, the strange thing was that after this evil force entered sun Buyi's body, it was like a clay ox entering the sea. It did not cause any substantial effect on his body.
He didn't believe it and used an even stronger evil force. Not only was it unaffected, but he was also hit with an indescribable double return.
His entire body was sent flying on the spot, and then blood flowed out of his seven apertures. In the blink of an eye, he was no longer breathing.
Everyone was in an uproar.
"Murder! Murder!"
Seeing this, the underlings of the young man with dreadlocks cried and shouted. Even sun Buyi himself was dumbfounded. Everything happened so fast that he did not have time to react.
At this time, Lin Yi and the other two arrived and quickly helped sun Buyi up from the ground,""What's going on?"
"I don't know," sun Buyi said with a blank face.
Shen Yifan glanced at the young man with dreadlocks, who had already stopped breathing, and said with a serious expression,""We're in big trouble now. If we're caught killing someone on the street, we'll have to pay with our lives. Elder Lin, you guys take elder sun back to the school to hide first. I'll look for my family and think of a way to smooth things over."
Lin Yi felt that something was not right, but seeing sun Buyi's lost face and the increasing number of people coming from all directions, it was not a good idea to stay here for long.
However, just when Lin Yi and the others were about to leave with sun Buyi, that handsome young man suddenly chuckled,""If you guys leave just like that, he'll be charged for murder. So what if he's hiding in Jianghai Academy? does he really think the school is out of the law?"
"Then, according to what you're saying, we shouldn't leave?" Lin Yi and the others looked at each other.
"At least check the corpse first," the handsome young master smiled.
Lin Yi's heart moved, and he immediately cupped his hands in greeting."Thank you for your guidance."
With that said, he went straight to the side of the young man's corpse under the watchful eyes of the crowd and casually slapped down with invisible true Qi.
A shocking scene appeared in the crowd. After the true energy entered his body, the young man with the dreadlocks, who looked as if he was dead, coughed violently and sat up straight.
The first sentence he said when he opened his eyes in a daze caused an uproar."Captain Chen, was I good at playing dead?"
"Captain Chen? That Captain Chen?"
Lin Yi whispered in his ear.
"Of course it's ..."
The young man with dreadlocks shuddered and reacted belatedly. He rolled and crawled back a few meters in fear."W-Who are you?"
Lin Yi smiled,"aren't you the one who's trying to frame us?" It's not appropriate for you to ask us that, right?"
